CataTrh in the Head

Originates in scrofulous faint in the blood.
Hence the proper method by which to cure

catarrh by purifying the blood; it also tones

The Whom. and st. Peter Land
Company case recently decided BY
Judge Webber in Brown County, is not
wholly parallel to other cases now pend
ing ins Redwood County. The decision
referred to only covers lands which
were in dispute between the Sioux City
Railway Company and the Winona and
st. Peter Ry. Co., and were awarded to
the latter by the courts and then trans
ferred to the Winona and st, Peter
Land Co. They are but small amount
of the lands Of the Company in Brown
County and have. been assessed each
year for the last ninesyears. It leaves
in dispute the taxes of a much larger
quantity Of land in Brown County than
is embraced in this decision and the
case that will furnish legal precedent
for the tax claims of Redwood County
against the w. and st. p. Land Co.
still remains undecided. W1NoNA RE

The TeDus Prohibition Fight,

A Galveston, Tex. special dated
Aug. 5, says.O One Of the most bitter
contests, left to the decision Of the bal
lot. that Texas has ever known culmi-
mated to-day. There were six consti-
tutional amendments voted upon, but
that providing for prohibition has been
of such an all-absorbing character that
the other amendments, although all
important, were practically lost sight
Of. In this city the election passed off
quietly. The majority Of 5000 against
prohibition, the result OF GalTeston's
vote,. was surprise to even the most
saanGG;a.ine among the ''antis. = This
election has caused a revelation as for
eign to our customs as it is repugnant
to the best sentiment Of our people.
Women, whose place has always been
at the freside, were yesterday at the
polls endeavoring to exercise popular
suffrage. And these women were not
the short-haired crusaders, but Calves
tons own fair ladies, who tried to
transform the polling places into pic
mic grounds by establishing around
them refreshment booths, where temper
ance drinks and viands were served.
If such q revolution in the exercise OF
suffrage in Texas had any influence,
it was in direction opposite to that
which was intended. While reports SO
far received from other portions Of the
state are meager, sufficient returns have
been receivd by the News to show that
prohibition has been defeated in the
state by larger majority than previ.
ously estimated.

a Marvellous Escape.
a Baby BzoaOn Through a Housc Roof
and Lines

Houghton, Mich, Aug. 4. Edward
Laudre, of Calumet, a small mining
town near Houghton, returned from
the mine where he was employed, Mon
day evening, bringing a box which had
contained nitro glycerine. A friend
accompanied Laudre home, and the
two were sitting in the kitchen where
Mrs. Laudre was busy getting supper.
Alfred Planquette was in the room, a
baby 2years old occupied high chair
and q 10 year-old daughter of the Lau-
dres was helping her mother. The fire
needing fuel, Mrs. Laudre went out
into the yard, and seeing the box her
husband had brought home, picked up
the cover, split it in two and poked the
pieces into the stove. a sharp Sizing
noise like escaping steam Immediately
followed and in an instant later terri
fc explosion occurred. The stove was
blown into pieces, the tea-kettle was
blown through the roof, cutting its way
as clear as if it was a solid shot fired
from a cannon. Through this aperture
was also blown the baby. The baby
was not killed. It was terribly bruised
about the face and lost one eye and
perhaps the sight Of the other. The
little girl was badly burned and Plan
quette's nose was Hattened. Laudre es-
capped with slight wounds and his wife,
who stood right over the stove at the
moment Of the explosion, was not much
hurt.

The Battle of Atlanta panorama in

seen in this country, and visitors to the

treat if they fail to see it. The piano.
rama has been on exhibition now in
Minneapolis for more than year, and
has attracted crowds of delighted visi-
tors. A visit will never be forgotten.
A STRANGER Took THEM In. "A
travelling fakir drew a large crowd on
the street Friday afternoon and sold
sleeve buttons at 10c. a pair and chains
for SOC. apiece, and then gave back to
the purchasers more than double as
much money as he had received. Some
seventy or eighty persons. then bought
chains from him at dollar each, ex-
pecting that the fakir would give back
their money and more too. The sharp
er also sold some watches worth $1.50
each for $50, $40 and SIS each, giving
the buyers some dumb watches and
cheap jewelry as presents. Those who
bought chains at 81 expecting return
Of at least 50, received a small lead
pencil each. The fakir protested that
he was going to remain in town another
day, but took the 3:45 train for the
north, carrying with him about $50
which he raked in in about an hour and
a half.

loud and long about the chinch bugs

:. and z. Club

by invitation of one of the members. Jo-
Seph Il. Brett, Esq, this club had their
twenty-elghth anniversary dinner at his res
ldence last evening, where the members mar
TOOK OF an elegant spread. and to which they
dld full justice. 1t will be remembered that
this is "last man" club, organized by nine
Portland boys on the 18th of January, 1859.
Charles III. Merrill and James S. Roberts
gave up their lives at the battle of the Will

Jordan died in September, 1885. The sur
viving members are John p. Alexander.
BENZ. L. TricIey, Joseph X. Brett, Henry
S. Tricky, Charles Rich and Charles E.
Randall. 1t is remarkable that in twenty
eight years so few have died, and that on
the 18th of January of each of these years
the surviving members have met and recall
ed the days of their boyhood.
In the early days of the club the late M.
Isabella Tricky took deep interest in the
welfare of its members. Within few weeks
she has died, and it was fitting that the club
remember her in the following resolutions,
which were passed last evening:
=, whereas, the f. and Z. Club, desiring to attest

Prize Fight at the Cape.

Last Saturday night about one hundred
sporting men of the city met at well known
resort to witness Prize fight between Casey
OF Boston and Hickey of Lynn. The APP
pearance of the police, however, put an end
to the affair." and no one was implicated, as
the mill had not really been begun. The two
pugilists, who were matched to fight for a
purse to finish, were determined to have it
out, and so last night, accompanied by some
of their friends, they met at secluded place
ON the Cape. Hickey proved to be too good
man for his opponent, who was knocked down
three times in the second round The subse-
quent proceedings interested Casey no more,
and SO the fight and the purse were declared
to belong to Hickey. The police knew about
the affair and traced the party of sports to
the boat which they took for the Cape. As
the jurisdiction of the police does not extend
outside the city limits, they followed the party
no further than the boat. Just where the
fight took place is not known, but there was
a rnmor that 1t was at Fort Preble, and that
some of the blue coats witnessed the short
but fierce and bloody battle. There is quite
a crowd of admirers of the so-called "manly
art" here, and another battle is said to be
planned
